Research Abstract |
The involvement of various neurotransmitters on spinal pain transmission was investigated in this project. As the results, it was found that nociceptin, hemokinin, histamine, endogenous cannabinoid, endogenous polyamine, as well as substance P and glutamate, participated on spinal pain transmission, and the spinal pain transmission was regulated by the mutual control of these neurotransmitter-containing neurons. In addition, it was also found that the supersensitivity of these neurotransmitters was occurred at the stage of the neuropathic pain to increase the pain sensation.
